Vegan Keto Salted Caramel Mocha

When the weather starts to cool, you need an indulgent hot drink to keep you warm. We couldn’t think of a better Keto coffee recipe than this vegan salted caramel mocha for those chillier days. Its rich, bitter, and sweet flavors perfectly complement each other and are intensified with a pinch of salt. Trust us; this decadent Keto-friendly coffee drink is worth trying.

What is a mocha, anyway?

A mocha, short for caffe mocha or mocha latte, is a chocolate-flavored coffee beverage made with espresso, chocolate syrup, and steamed milk. It comes in many flavors, such as white chocolate mocha, crème Brule mocha, and many more. In this recipe, we have decided to go with a very popular flavor, salted caramel.

How to make this Keto coffee at home?

Traditional mocha is made using espresso and steamed milk prepared in an espresso machine. But since most people don’t own espresso machines at home, we have come up with a simpler method. Blend together hot milk, freshly brewed coffee, cocoa powder, caramel syrup, and a pinch of salt. Pour the low-carb drink into a mug, then top it with whipped coconut cream and a drizzle of caramel sauce.

Can you omit the salt?

Yes, definitely. However, we recommend decreasing the amount of salt instead of omitting it since salt brings out the flavor of chocolate and coffee. If you still can’t wrap your head around sweet and salty flavors together, then, by all means, omit it.

Can you use homemade sugar-free caramel for this recipe?

If you can’t find a good vegan and Keto-friendly caramel sauce on the market, you can simply go ahead and make your own. You can use our recipe for Keto vegan salted caramel sauce, but omit the salt in the mocha recipe since the sauce is already salted: https://my.carbmanager.com/meals/my-foods?dialog=food-detail:ug:1aff3cff-f085-4cb2-1aba-93fa8565745d
